I don't get why he uses so much finishing tape on his frames

Even more embarrassing was his performance against Roddick at the U.S. Open. You tank once You tank twice. Wait until he reaches another hurdle and we will see how he handles it. You can have Tomic.

It is just our culture. He will be fine.

Djoko the tank engine methinks. The 2 boys have something in common now, no?

I guess that makes it okay. Perhaps for you. It's wrong. And there is no place for it in this game. You want to misbehave because of your great desire to win. Maybe I can live with that. But never, never, give up especially on center court of a Grand Slam. I know you believe that Gregory.

Tomic is wearing 2010 Vapor 7's in his semifinal against Seppi. I'm surprised Nike are cool with that.

Sort of like how Fed prefers V6.
Maybe he likes the V7s

Lefty78 · 01-11-2013, 05:33 AM

I foresee some Radical paint in his near future.

Definietly NOT from the PT630 mold.

One easy way to tell, though there are a few clues visible:
In the photos you can clearly see that the pallets extend almost to the throat of the racquet (exactly like Rad MP, 260.2, etc) whereas a PT630 has a good inch of graphite between the top of the pallets and the throat.

Maybe you don't know, but the Head pallets are bigger than 18cm, you can just cut it out according to your needs.

^^^Not even sure what this means... Perhaps I was unclear with my statement, however I am 100% correct in my analysis. Racquet is from Rad MP mold, you can take it or leave it.

Haven't you seen pallets from factory? ...

Radical MP mold, you could be right, but are you saying it just by these topic pics ?

vsbabolat · 01-11-2013, 02:17 PM

Tomic is definitely using the YT Radical MP 260.2

Yes, by the bagful.

Since you seem intent on a pi**ing match, you should know that I used to earn my living as a racquet technician. I've had the honor to build racquets for players in the hall of fame, and I've probably forgotten more about racquets than you know.
